What revert_policy_package does on Fortimanager

AI agents call revert_policy_package to permanently remove resources in Fortimanager — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why revert_policy_package needs a policy

The name 'revert_policy_package' implies rolling back or overwriting a policy package configuration in FortiManager. Reverting typically replaces current state with a previous state, which can be an irreversible overwrite of the current configuration. Given the context of a FortiManager MCP server dealing with network security policies, misuse could have a high blast radius by disrupting firewall policies.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'revert_policy_package' suggests reverting/rolling back a policy package, which could overwrite current configurations irreversibly. Description is empty, lowering confidence.

How to control revert_policy_package

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Fortimanager, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for revert_policy_package:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "revert_policy_package"
  ]
}

revert_policy_package disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register Fortimanager — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
